| A mod that turns every Civ bonus/UT into a Team Bonus Posted: 25 Oct 2019 04:32 AM PDT It was a fun thought that came to my mind, imagine a mod that made all civ bonuses and unique techs teamwide. You could doo simple and strong stuff, like 2v2s with slavs and aztecs for like 30% farm gather rate, indian+saracen for 190 HP imp camels or inca+Mayan for 100hp eagle huskarls ... Or go with 4v4s. And silly stuff like Teutons/Malians/Celts/Vikings. Teutonic knights with decent speed 120hp anti cav dmg and 2+7 pierce armor Or Chinese/byzantines/koreans/Japanese. 70% HP increase on towers wich fire 3 arrows at once over 13 range Or burmese/aztec/japanese/slav. Infantry with AoE, 33% faster attack speed and +7 attack [link] [comments] | ||
| Beginner --> 2k Guide on youtube Posted: 24 Oct 2019 08:36 PM PDT Hey all, I recently started a youtube exclusive series "Beginner -> 2k Guide". The goal is really just to show the steps you need to take to become a better player, and eventually reach 2k. In the series I play games on a new account and talk about my thought process and decision making while playing. I also do my best to avoid any fancy micro with the hopes that anyone watching would be able to learn from it, you don't have to be mechanically skilled to benefit. Thought I may as well reach out to the reddit community as i've only just started the series and maybe some of you guys might be interested in checking it out. Here's a link to my youtube channel, feel free to check out the guide and give some feedback! [link] [comments] | ||
| If team bonuses stacked what would be the most insane combination? Posted: 24 Oct 2019 08:55 PM PDT Any variation valid. 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, having 3stacked + another bonus, or 2/1/1, or 2/2 stacking. Which bonuses that are garbage become decent, which ones get worse, which ones break the game? Meme Answer: Saracen Quad bonus shreds like a Finnish death metal front man. Slav Answer: Barracks, Stable, Archery Range +20 population. Duos: 2x Mayans, walls are free. Also: Modders get on it if it hasn't happened. [link] [comments] | ||
| Standard Post for Info for incoming Starcraft 2 Players. Posted: 24 Oct 2019 10:34 PM PDT Im gonna grab questions and thoughts and plot them here that concern with the title. I would appreciate it if you would link those with these questions to this. Also If you have anything to add just comment below. A plat 3 random in SC2 asks : Where to get started on mechanics and builds for this game? Answer: Slightly modified from u/Kanye_TWest Aoe2 is very different. There are certainly differences among the various civilizations, but they aren't nearly as profound as are the differences among SC2 races. Rather than learning civilizations, you should learn strategies. The basic strategies can all be executed by pretty much every civilization with notable exceptions. While small differences in execution based on the innate differences in civs the basics of them are largely the same, especially when you are starting to learn. Common build orders like "22 population scouts" is typically the build I would recommend players learn first. Games are mostly played with random civilizations, so you'll need to learn how to play with all of the civs if you want to play lots of multiplayer games. What does Aoe2 do better than modern RTS games such as Starcraft 2? Answer : From u/Steggy_Dinosaur & u/Scrapheaper AoEs biggest strength is at the same time its biggest weakness: Random generated maps (so literally every single match is different). Otherwise it's an quite different RTS than SC2, being rather slow at the start (I would call it relaxing, others might call it boring) with an unusual heavy focus on economy management. A lot people might also say it's important to note that all AoE2 civs are rather similar to each other, while SC2 has very unique civs. Randomly generated maps mean scouting is even more important than in starcraft. 2v2-4v4 are also taken seriously as competitive modes, Emphasis on macro play, 'maining' a civ isnt advised but learning all is. Community is different. A SC2 player feeling stale: Should I wait for DE? My Answer: Yes, Aoe2 HD is no longer being supported and the population is getting ready to migrate to a new platform unless you want HD because its cheap & on sale at some point. Also core differences between the games will arise as the newer version has many QOL features that the original lacked. If you join now you risk just confusing yourself even more. Also you get everything that HD & its expansions offer altogether in one package + new civs exclusive to DE. Save yourself the trouble. SC2 (Plat/Dia) Is there a ladder system? Details? Answer: u/Sinapellido94 (Yes I read it too but its still relevant here) Aoe2 doesnt have a ranked queue system like sc2 (it will though in the upcoming aoe2 definitive edition). On voobly where competitive play takes place you can open a lobby for people to join, you can see their elo and win rate there. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 25 Oct 2019 03:17 AM PDT If terrain bonuses existed, what would be some good ones? Vikings could move faster in snow, arabians and malians on sand? (I know there aren't enough different terrains to make this feasible in reality) [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 25 Oct 2019 02:19 AM PDT Plz help guys my aoe2(2013) is lagging so much in multiplayer that it is almost unplayable. Have also tried playing multiplayer vs bots but its still lagging. Singleplayer works perfectly. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 24 Oct 2019 08:00 PM PDT Like, shockingly bad. They are without question the worst civ. Playing as them feels like swordfighting with a foam noodle. I'm convinced if you can become great at the game playing only as Vietnamese, you'll be unstoppable when you finally pick another civ. [link] [comments] | ||
| Voobly with only one expansion? Posted: 24 Oct 2019 10:03 PM PDT Hey fellas, im trying to get voobly operational... I only have the forgotten, and it doesnt seem to let me play with just that version. I used the "wololokingdoms" app but when it finishes, nothing seems to happen. Any help? [link] [comments] | ||
| Is there any way to get the barbarian ai to stop laming? Posted: 24 Oct 2019 09:47 PM PDT I'm trying to get better at this game and I find playing against the barbarian ai on hard to be really helpful. It plays like a human player with drushes, archer and scout rushes, and adjusts it's strategy depending on its civ. However every alternate game it lames my boar. This is really annoying as it obviously puts me in a severe disadvantage right from the beginning. I don't have anything against laming but it's not helpful when you're trying to get your basic builds and strategies down. Is there anyway to get the barbarian ai to not lame me?

| My personal balance change ideas... Posted: 25 Oct 2019 01:37 AM PDT This is just my personal balance change ideas. Everyone is welcome to like it, dislike it, meme it or discuss about it. My balance change ideas are going to be as close as possible to the historical accuracy and at the same time trying not to make it overpowered or very weak. All ideas are from current 5.8.1 HD(2013) and Definitive Edition reveals. General changes:
Franks:
Italians:
Persians:
Berbers:
Koreans:
Teutons:
Huns:
Goths:
Incas:
Chinese:
Saracens:
Mongols:
Malay:
Spanish:
Vietnamese:
Slavs:
Portuguese:
Khmer:
Indians:

| Posted: 24 Oct 2019 07:31 PM PDT And possibly making sarcastic maps of Byzantine soldiers in formations that look like Greek words or sarcastic scenarios of swapping out their unit's audio for different Greek words. Is there a discord community for AoE2 custom maps? Should I pre-order? (as in will it definitely be more expensive if I do not preorder?) [link] [comments] | ||
